With ground lamb, I mix rosemary, worsteshire sauce, spicy mustard, and garlic, (iirc, can't find my recipe), and baste lamb burgers with it and grill them outside. Awesome results.

Sounds good. Although rosemary tastes fantastic it's a bit tough to actually eat in something.

A trick I learned somewhere is to juice a lemon into a bowl, then take some sprigs of rosemary, lay them on a cutting board and whack them with the back edge of a knife to damage the leaves and make them ooze rosemary juice. Dip them in the lemon juice and let them sit for a few seconds, then use them as a brush to brush the rosemary/lemon juice on the burgers when they cook.

(one recipe, another one, I kind of used a combination of the two.)

Heh, a friend of mine's parents are Lebanese, and they made some for my friends and I. Although it is tasty, the texture was a little too much. Cooked it is alright, but my pallette can't take it raw.

BRILLIANT!!!

One of my favorite foods. But doesn't it normally have other meats?

I think lamb is primary, being that it's Irish, no?

And the fact its called shepherds pie is a bit of a hint as to what meat is in it.

Although I suppose cottage pie doesnt ha........

Nope that joke is just too lame :(

Good tip. We've got a nice garlic press that works great with rosemary as well.
